Duality and defects in rational conformal field theory
Jürg Fröhlich, Jürgen Fuchs, Ingo Runkel +1
We study topological defect lines in two-dimensional rational conformal field theory. Continuous variation of the location of such a defect does not change the value of a correlato…
Picard groups in rational conformal field theory
Jürg Fröhlich, Jürgen Fuchs, Ingo Runkel +1
Algebra and representation theory in modular tensor categories can be combined with tools from topological field theory to obtain a deeper understanding of rational conformal field…
Solitonic sectors, alpha-induction and symmetry breaking boundaries
J. Fuchs, C. Schweigert
We develop a systematic approach to boundary conditions that break bulk symmetries in a general way such that left and right movers are not necessarily connected by an automorphism…
Orbifold analysis of broken bulk symmetries
J. Fuchs, C. Schweigert
In two-dimensional conformal field theory, we analyze conformally invariant boundary conditions which break part of the bulk symmetries. When the subalgebra that is preserved by th…
